The King of Sweden once "directed" the dispute over tea and coffee.
As a beverage, the benefits of tea have been widely recognized all over the world. However, there is a process. In the early days, tea was not accepted by everyone. At that time, tea went through a very arduous process to enter the coffee market and gain a foothold in the West.
According to Huicong.com, it is rumored that when tea was introduced into Europe, during the period of King Gustav III of Sweden, there were different views on the function of tea. Some people thought that tea was oriental and beneficial, while others thought that tea, like coffee, would be addictive and harmful to health.
In order to verify the efficacy of tea and coffee, the king decided to use people to do the experiment, "director" of a tea and coffee dispute. Coincidentally, when a pair of twin brothers were locked up for a capital crime, the king ordered his brother to drink five cups of tea a day and his younger brother five cups of coffee a day until he fell ill and died, thus avoiding immediate beheading. As a result, my brother lived to be 87 years old when he drank tea and his younger brother lived to be 83 years old when he drank coffee.
Since then, the popularity of tea drinking in Sweden has promoted the popularity of tea drinking customs in Europe. At the same time, Western coffee is also gradually appearing on the table of Easterners. Of course, it is not easy for coffee to enter the country of tea. On all sides, the contest between tea and coffee has never stopped.
In November this year, triggered by the views of Anji White Tea leading brand Waiwai Mingyuan, China's tea industry was engaged in a vigorous "white tea marriage concubine" campaign, that is, the homonym of "white tea for coffee". In other words, white tea will replace coffee in the future.
In a sense, tea can represent China or Chinese culture. Coffee is a specialty produced under the leadership of Western civilization, and each has its own advantages and characteristics. At present, no one has the ability to replace each other, and I believe that the contest between "meaning" things will not stop this time, but it is hoped that through such "close contact", consumers will better understand the deep meaning behind them. understand the culture of the East and the West, strengthen exchanges, enhance friendship, and jointly build a harmonious world.
